Plingo

Give your child the gift of English: Transform screen time into fun learning time!

Welcome to Plingo: a rich, immersive educational journey! This app was thoughtfully developed by language learning specialists, primarily designed for children learning English as a second language (ESL)—but learners of all ages can benefit too.

How will my child learn?

Plingo includes a variety of entertaining and instructional mini-games. Your child will develop the following skills:

★ Listening - The mini-games feature spoken challenges and feedback delivered by a diverse cast of characters. Your child will quickly learn to recognize vocabulary, grammar patterns, and the natural rhythm of English.

★ Speaking - Yes, in certain mini-games your child controls the action by speaking—beginning with individual words and advancing to full sentences! Our cutting-edge speech recognition has been extensively tested with children across nearly every country, native language, and dialect, achieving over 99% accuracy in our pre-launch trials.

★ Vocabulary - With a library of 5,000+ words and phrases—and more added weekly—your child will rapidly build a strong vocabulary!

★ Reading - Each mini-game supports both reading and listening, helping your child gain confidence in both areas.

★ Pronunciation - Many young learners pick up incorrect pronunciation early on, forming an accent that becomes hard to overcome. We prevent this by helping your child speak like a native! Through the app, they'll systematically learn the 40 phonemes of English, deconstruct spoken words, assemble words from sounds, and master correct pronunciation.

Peripheral Learning

Research confirms that language immersion during engaging activities is the most effective way to learn. Plingo’s unique Peripheral Learning method is highly effective—your child won’t even realize they're using an educational app! Instead of memorizing obscure terms in other games (like “Obsidian” in Minecraft), they’ll master English naturally as they advance through levels.

Who is Plingo for?

Although created for children aged 6–12 learning English as a second language, we've seen younger and older learners from all backgrounds enjoy and benefit from Plingo.

Teachers, schools, and organizations can use Plingo as an ESL teaching resource and gain access to our specialized teacher tools. Interested in using Plingo for your organization? Contact [email protected]
